Researchers have uncovered how egg cells prepare for the creation of life. Their work reveals the secrets of the Balbiani body (Bb), a remarkable structure that organizes essential molecules to guide ...
As the Bb disassembles, it delivers RNPs (ribonucleoproteins) to the oocyte cortex. This fundamental research using zebrafish oocytes can provide new insights into understanding pathological ...
On injecting zebrafish embryo yolks with MOs, Nasevicius and Ekker obtained 8 zebrafish embryos (see inset on preceding page) that phenocopy mutants generated by chemical mutagenesis. With one ...
